Old Master, have you ever been beaten by a Pokémon?

During the long journey, Liu Tianci encountered many strange creatures unique to the world of One Piece.

Among them is Labang, the overlord of this winter island. They live in groups and are extremely ferocious. They have the keen hearing of rabbit ears and the strong body of bears. They will attack any creature that dares to step into their territory without mercy, and can even use the power of vibration to cause earth-shaking avalanches.

Hiking bears are another eye-catching presence. They look similar to polar bears, but have a unique ability - walking upright. They often use a hiking stick, and are elegant and steady. When they meet humans, they nod to greet them, showing extraordinary friendliness and wisdom.

Let's talk about the hairy hippopotamus, this magical creature in the snow. In order to adapt to the harsh environment, they have evolved unusually long legs, which are usually cleverly hidden under thick fur. Once necessary, these long legs can be quickly extended, allowing them to run in the snow at an amazing speed.

However, despite their own unique characteristics, these creatures all seemed ordinary to Liu Tianci. He believed that they overlapped with existing pets in terms of function, lacked unique charm, and were not strong enough to arouse his interest.

Therefore, when faced with a choice, he tends to pursue more powerful and unique creatures-such as giant monsters that can be assimilated into long-haired trolls. For other creatures, he did not waste the precious Pokémon Balls to capture them.

When Nami and others curiously asked Liu Tianci about his criteria for choosing pets, he answered without hesitation: "Special, powerful, cool, rare, these are the ideal qualities I pursue." His answer was full of firmness and confidence, and also showed his unique insights and pursuits for pets.

Because of Luffy's greedy nature, he ate up all the food, which made Sanji, who always paid attention to food, furious. At this critical moment, the fishing master Liu Tianci stood up again.

As a fisherman, he never returns empty-handed. Whether it is a rare devil fruit, a ferocious mutant shark, or an innocent little girl, they have all been his trophies. But today, he caught a ridiculous creature on his fishing rod - a shemale.

This shemale named Mr.2 Von Clay won the admiration of Luffy and others with his amazing imitation ability. However, Liu Tianci intuitively sensed that there seemed to be something wrong behind him.

As expected, they later learned that he was a member of the hostile forces, who was strong and difficult to deal with. This encounter undoubtedly made Luffy and his friends feel unprecedented pressure and challenges.

In the waters near Alabasta, a strange creature quietly appeared. It has the elegant posture of a cat and the agile tail of a fish. It is a wild sea cat that swims freely along the coast of Sunday Island all year round.

Due to four consecutive days of hunger, Luffy and his companions had a flash of the idea of ​​catching the sea cat when they saw it. However, this action was stopped in time by Princess Vivi. She explained that in Alabasta, sea cats are regarded as sacred creatures, and their appearance heralds the arrival of Alabasta's unique climate.

After hearing this, Liu Tianci thought the sea cat was a little weak, but out of respect for his friends' customs, he gave up the idea of ​​catching it. As a result, the sea cat was able to continue to live freely in this sea area.

In short, Liu Tianci adheres to the principle of "four no-catch": do not catch those that will cause ecological destruction, do not harm sentient beings, do not catch those that are too weak, and do not touch those lives that can help others.

Take the Kung Fu manatees that roam in groups near the coast of Alabasta as an example. They like to compete with humans, and if they lose, they must worship the winner as their teacher. These manatees undoubtedly have a persistence and respect for martial arts.

For example, when the group was walking in the hot desert until they were exhausted, Luffy was accidentally cheated by the cunning desert thief, the Trickster Bird, and all his luggage was taken away.

After the angry Luffy chased after it, he accidentally attracted a desert giant lizard, the Santara lizard. This lizard is huge, with sharp teeth and claws, and is the top predator in the Alabasta Desert. However, in front of the Straw Hat Pirates, it became their meal because the food was stolen by the Deception Bird.

After everyone joined forces to defeat the Santa Dora Lizard, they accidentally rescued a camel. It was the camel that bravely rescued Chopper when he accidentally entered the rebel base.

In addition, there is the moving crab named "Scissors", which is a close friend of the camel "Eyelashes" and belongs to the moving club.

This Alabasta desert creature with a slightly lustful look in its eyes helped the Straw Hats reach the "Rainy Land" quickly, and was driven by Chopper himself. Whenever it saw a dancing girl, it could instantly speed up (this power came from its lustful nature), but on the way across the Santara River, it accidentally sank and eventually returned to the shore.

In the subsequent expedition, they encountered the Santa Dora catfish, which was undoubtedly a rare existence that could not be ignored. As a rare creature in the Santa Dora River, it was not only a rare large carnivore, but also a terrifying existence that fed on humans.

[Congratulations, brave adventurer, you have successfully captured this Santala catfish. Next, please carefully choose the Pokémon partner that will fight alongside you. ]

After careful consideration, Liu Tianci decided to choose King Catfish as his Pokémon partner. Although King Catfish and King Chiro are highly compatible, King Catfish has the dual advantages of water and ground attributes.

Although it seems relatively vulnerable to grass-attribute attacks, its resistance to other attributes is quite outstanding, which undoubtedly adds a solid guarantee for Liu Tianci's adventure.

The following is an Easter egg chapter, you can skip it————————————————————

The catfish king is shaped like a giant catfish, with a deep blue complexion and a bright golden glow on its belly. Next to its spongy light blue lips, a pair of slender yellow whiskers sway in the wind, and the striking W-shaped yellow pattern on its forehead is its unique mark. The color of the pectoral and pelvic fins blends into the skin, while the dorsal fin is light blue with three striking black spots on it, like stars in the night sky.

It has a strong sense of territory. It regards the entire swamp as its kingdom, builds its nest at the bottom, and does not allow outside enemies to invade. Once an outside enemy approaches, it will shake the ground violently and launch a fierce attack, even causing an earthquake within a radius of 5 kilometers, repelling the opponent with its powerful force. During the day, it will fall asleep in the mud at the bottom of the swamp, and at night it will be full of energy and continue to hunt prey. It lurks in the depths of the swamp, and no matter what kind of creature it is, as long as it is alive, it cannot escape its sharp eyes and huge appetite.

Although the catfish's eyesight is not good, its sensitive whiskers can sense the vibration of the water and accurately grasp the location of its prey. Once it locks on the target, it will shake the ground violently, making a shocking sound, and swallow the prey together with the mud. Sometimes, it will slap the bottom of the swamp with its tail fin to create vibrations, taking the opportunity to swallow the prey that fled in fear.

When groups of king catfish jump on the water, people often mistakenly think that this is a precursor to an earthquake. Over time, the king catfish can even predict the arrival of a real earthquake, making people mistakenly believe that it is the source of the earthquake. However, this is just a natural manifestation of its powerful strength and unique habits.
